Indeed. Maybe add some math book as a reference so that we can blame the
author instead of each other from the algeb

i don't even seen why it matters what the definition of "prime" is
for this. irrespective of what a prime number is, "1"

Sounds like quite a stretch from "common sense" to a pipeline of number
crunching scripts with factor at the en
